“Rising Like Flowers”

 “Rising Like Flowers”

by Suzán Jiván Mom & Mom-Mom Suzán 

Rising like flowers as visual poems

in their own right representing all-seeing minds

looking up into the blue universe of the sky 

while vaporous white clouds cross into view 

diffusing solar rays portrayed in amiable shades

guiding those souls slowly passing away…

“Brought Up-to-Date”

“Brought Up-to-Date”

by Suzán Jiván Mom

& Mom-Mom Suzán 

Brought up-to-date 

appearing in mirrors 

of everyday scenes

side lighted from the right 

as highlights by catching time 

on the wing like hard-won freedom 

from split-second techniques

filled with immediacy 

in the wink of an eye 

into austere insights 

flooded with brilliant light…
